Related to G. occidentalis but the leaves are larger, thicker-textured and shinier on the upper surface, with entire or subentire margins. The holotype in B has unfortunately been destroyed and no further material of the type gathering has been located but, judging by the description, there is little doubt that it applies to the present concept.
